The Mess Management Specialists working in the Wardroom and Cabin Messes aboard Missouri were responsi- ble for putting on more than 25 official receptions, luncheons, and dinners, at- tended by well over 3,000 people, in- cluding heads of state, U.S. Senators and Congressmen, local dignitaries, for- eign and U.S. flag officers and embassy personnel. These highly successful and universally praised functions were the most visible part of S-5 ' s job during the world cruise but were in reality only a very small part of their job. For in addi- tion to all of the official functions, the Wardroom and Cabin Mess personnel were still responsible for putting out three meals a day, keeping over 100 di- visional spaces and staterooms at an op- timum level of cleanliness and material condition and for performing their dai- ly military duties.
